The Poorer People of London.

The remarkable well being of children
in neighboring slums and cutters would
lead n to suppose that dirt is healthy,
though of course there are many who do
not exhibit such evidence of robustness.
But it is certain that the pampered infant,
carefully wrapped in flannel from its birth,
and doctored upon every possible occasion,
is not, in tho long run, of the same endur-
ing constitution generally to be met with
in the lower classes, though the grumble
of these concerning their richer brethren
Is incessant.
Look, however, at these specimens Of
humanity when they reach o maturer age,
their coarse ideas and ways, which are
followed by many others who have not
their Reuse. The very way In which the
coster and his like make love partakes Of
the brute. He is unendowed with the
power Of forming his feeling into delicate
or even acceptable speech, so he takes to
banging or pinching, and n may see the
well known type of '%Arry and his gal"
of fine feathers, oiled hair and high heels
cutting each other to denote their affection,
or c~oarsely %assaulting their favorites to
display their displeasure, and perhaps
sulkily walking apart When annoyed, but
not sufficiently irritable for any more ag-
gressive form of venting their feelings

K. r. Hnrd has returned from Europe,
having sailed from Liverpool March 10.
and arrived in New York March 26, cross
ing the Atlantic in seven days and that
too during the prevalence of the equinoc

situation at one time was such that some
of the passengers became alarmed and
one of them who was very much excr-
cised, said he could remember a good
many things he had done during his life
time, which he wished then he had left
undone, and asked Mr.. Hurd il he too
did not remember some things he had
done which he felt sorry for. Mr.. Hurd
said yes, there were, and they we're poor
investments in which he did not even get
his money back. The frightened passen-

Said an old veteran and q prominent
business man: "You would not believe it,
but at one time l was q member of one
of the military bands in the old army.
1t SO happened that the regiment to which
our band was attached was sent to Fort
Pulaski. We were on one of the gun
boats maneuvering in that region, and on
Ii occasion In passing up the river, which
had several outlet channels or mouths,
the boat ran up the wrong channel, one
so narrow that it did not permit q turn Of
the boat except under the very guns Of
the rebels. Tho officer In command soon
discovered the mistake, but the question
was how he was to get out Of the scrape.
"Some distance to the front the channel
widened, so that there would be no diff
Guilty in turning the boat for q retreat if
the rebel guns which commanded that
part of the channel would keep quiet.
The officer called the band together and
instructed them to play Dixie We did
it and did our best, and that Federal gun
boat swung round into the wide part of
the channel, the band playing the ~favorite
tune and the rebels cheering us instead of
firing at us. AS soon as the turn was
made and the boat was out of the imme-
diate range of the heavy guns we changed
instantly to THE Star Spangled Banner
and then it was bang and crash and roar,

1 cannot agree with Mr.. Howells that

There are short stories whose number IL

Mr.. Howells exalts is certainly rare. But
this is not meant as an indictment of our
writers, for a short story Of the best class
Is distinctly the most difficult thing to &C.

Tho Cry OF tho Dansheo.

There is now living in Bristol a Mrs.
Ltlahan, an old Irish woman, who has
not seen her own country for forty years.
She is old, poor, bed ridden and suffering,
but patient and cheerful beyond belief
Her strongest feeling is love for Ireland,
and she likes talking to me because | nm
Irish. Many a time, sitting in her little,
close room, above the noisy street, she has
told me about banshees and phookas and
fairies, especially the first. She declares
solemnly sho once heard the cry, or caoin
of n banshee.
1T was when 1 was a little young
child,' - she told me, land knew nothing
at oil Of banshees, or OF death. One day
mother sent me to see after my grand
mother, the length Of three miles from
our house. AL the road was deep in snow,
and / went my lone-and didn't know tho
grandmother was dead, and my aunt gone
to the village for help. So l got to the
house, and l see her lying so still and
quiet I thought she was slcepin'. When
1 called her and she wouldn't stir or speak,
1 thought I'd put on her face to
wake her. l just stepped outside to get q
handful, and came in, leaving the door
open, and then 1 heard q far away cry, SO
faint and yet SO fearsome that / shook
like q leaf in the wind. 1t got nearer and
nearer, and then l heard n sound like
~clapping or wringing of hands, as they do
In kneeling at u funeral. Twice it came
and then l slid down to the ground and
crcpt under the bed where my grand
mother lay, and there l heard it for the
third time crying, 'Ochonc, ochone,' at the
very door. Then it suddenly stopped; I
couldn't tell where it went, and L dared
not lift up my mead till the woman came
In the house. One of them took me up
and said: 1T was the banshee the child
heard, for the woman that lies there was
n of the real old Irish families-sho was
an OCrady and that was the raison Of
it. "-English Magazine.
